The hotel sits overlooking Liugongzhen Park, in Taipei’s hip (and historic) Da’an District. The hotel’s PR guru, Mr. Calvin Lai, picked me up and gave me a tour of the facilities. Impressive is an understatement…

The design of the hotel really has a rich, warm feel to it.

Interestingly, the hallway walls and room doors are adorned with copper plating.

You may notice hand and fingerprints from the guests on the walls, and the preservation of these is actually intentional. It’s a way for guests to leave their mark on the hotel, and kind of  give the place a broken in feel. This quirky idea is the brainchild of mastermind designer Ray Chen.

I was fortunate to experience his other designs in both HOTEL QUOTE and GLORIA RESIDENCE as well…each with their own unique feel.

When I reached my room, this was the greeting I found waiting for me. What a nice touch, to put my name up on the giant flats screen TV! I believe it is also programmed into the digital readout on the in-room phone. What a way to make feel guests feel welcomed and valued.

The rooms envelop you in a warm atmosphere of plush fabrics, carpets, and wood paneling. Leather is used as tasteful accenting on some of the furniture as well. As is the case with all Gloria Hotel properties I toured, there is a nice oversized safety deposit box provided (although Taipei feels quite safe to me).

Room Details

I loved the vintage lighting and control switches in the rooms, what a nice retro touch! Ray Chen is a big fan of chandeliers, too…and you’ll notice them throughout the hotel – even at the side of your bed. Quite a unique and dramatic touch.

Another “vintage” feature is the deliberate choice to include normal keyed locks. I can’t remember the last time I stayed at a hotel this nice that didn’t use electronic room cards. The locks are concealed behind classy copper (or brass?) covers. I’m a sucker for nostalgia, so I loved this.

Pictured here is the beautiful, spacious layout of the Deluxe Room. It comes complete with a desk and sleek leather chair. My “job” has provided many, many stays in hotels and resorts…but very few have bedding with this level of comfort. Honestly, the Gloria Hotel group (or Ray Chen…or both?) really hit the nail on the head with their heavenly comforter and mattress choices.

The Most Elegant Bathroom…All To Myself

Can you believe this? I took full advantage of this luxurious bathtub, and was quite amazed by the electronic toilet. Upon approach, the lid automatically lifts, and the inside of the bowl is illuminated with blue LED lighting. Of course it includes a bidet, and even has the option to adjust both water placement and pressure. I believe the seat is heated as well.

HOTEL PROVERBS spares no expense…even the faucets are classy works of art.

Depending on which way your room faces, you may get a nice view of the city and park below.

It was a beautiful day in Taipei.

I took the elevator down to check out the bar / lounge below. I’d say this elevator wins the award for best & most hip mood lighting…

EAST END Bar – One of the Hottest in Taipei

Sadly, I didn’t have time to experience the bar at night. I’ve heard plenty of stories about it, though…and even during the day, it looks like an incredible place to have a drink. The bar / lounge is owned by world famous Tokyo mixologist Hidetsugu Ueno. Apparently it’s one of the trendiest cocktail bars in Taipei’s Eastern District.

By the way, note the grey tiles on the right and above the bar. They can be found adorning the walls of the lobby and bar…each one is unique, and they were collected from vintage buildings in New York!

TK SEAFOOD & STEAK Restaurant

The EAST END Bar is not the only famous establishment housed in the hotel…this steakhouse is also quite known for it’s fresh and unique menu options. When you walk into the lobby, on the left you’ll notice a curing rack on display…complete with curing meats inside!

Apparently the chef owns a farm, and the restaurant’s ingredients are organic, and straight “from farm to table”. Be sure to check out the Jack Daniel’s infused steak as well!

Above, you’ll notice the dining hall, with an impressive display of the before mentioned chandeliers.

Here you can get an idea of how fresh the seafood options are…I believe the chef and dining staff were conducting a training in the background. 

(continued below, but I do hope you’ll consider following along with me…)

Rooftop Swimming Pool – Hotel Proverbs Review

I loved being up here….I swam just before closing, with sweeping views of downtown Taipei and the iconic Taipei 101 building on the skyline.

That’s about it for my first trip to Taiwan…though I doubt it will be my last. I loved this friendly country so much. I plan on coming back to explore much more (and even try to learn some Mandarin!) Big thanks to Calvin Lai, Spud Chang, and the rest of the helpful staff at the hotel. Your warm service and attention to detail did not go unnoticed….

Location & Booking

HOTEL PROVERBS Taipei is conveniently located about a 5 minute walk from the Zhongxiao Fuxing MRT station, and less than 1 km from the Liaoning Night Market.

By Nathan Allen

I’m going to LOVE Taipei.

HOTEL QUOTE sits discreetly behind the wall of a bustling street in Taipei, very near the Nanjing Fuxing (Brown/Green) MRT line. The hotel is quite tasteful and artistic; A sleek, modern design with deep, warm hues. The staff was every bit professional and helpful, and saw me to my room right away.

I believe this unit is known as an “O Room”, and impressive is an understatement. Featuring a king sized Simmons mattress fitted with soft, heavenly bedding, this may well be the best night of sleep in my life.

I love the layout of this room. There is a divider between the bathroom and the bedroom – it can be pulled down to separate the space. As you can see, the bathroom is quite large, and provides everything a weary traveler’s heart may desire. Personally, I was set on a hot, relaxing soak in the bathtub.

I don’t know how I feel about hotels that place a television in the bathroom…I suppose I like to keep these two areas of my life separate. In any case, I loved the layout here because it’s not in the bathroom. However, if you want, you can still watch the bedroom TV from the bathtub! 

It’s All in the Details…

The “surreal” part I mentioned in the title comes from the design and feel of the place…the small touches here and there. I noticed a kind of “retro” vibe…evident by the “house phone” pictured below. Details like this kind of made me feel like I was in a Wes Anderson movie, and being one of my favorite directors, I didn’t mind that at all.

Also pictured are the controls for the room’s space-age toilet…which is quite an experience in and of itself. being fully automatic (and even heated), one need not touch any part of the toilet (with hands) during use. Yes, truly a germaphobe’s dream come true.

(I’ll admit, having a robotic toilet attend to the most intimate of your bathroom needs takes a bit of getting used to, but wow…how quickly you become spoiled by it.)

Also worth mentioning is the sleek and natural stone coaster on the sink. Along with the scent of the soap and toiletries (which I can be particular about), I thought these were very tastefully chosen.

Some other things to note about the room: A safety deposit box large enough for a laptop (yessss), thoughtful master lighting controls by the bed (which are are illuminated so you can access them in the dark), a gourmet coffee maker, and a Bose sound system. Wifi worked well throughout the hotel.  Yes, I felt right at home.

An Eclectic Theme in the Common Areas

There seems to be a “woodland animal” theme…and though this deer bust in the lobby looks quite real, I was assured it is indeed faux.

H.Q. Lounge & Meeting Room

The sleek and well equipped lounge also provides complimentary snacks to guests. There are more forest animals to be found here as well…in the form of ceramic rabbits decorating the tables.

The attached meeting room is intimate, and tastefully lit. Very sleek.

Aside from a wide variety of snacks and beverages, below is another quirky touch. One wall of the lounge is full of glass jars…each one containing its own unique complimentary items for guests. Everything from toiletries to souvenirs to candy (on the lower levels).

Offering all these items in the rooms would clutter things quite a bit, so this was a very creative solution. Of course, most hotels only offer a fraction of this many goodies…so you’re made to (quite literally) feel like a “kid in a candy store”.

(continued below, but I do hope you’ll consider following along with me…)

333 Restaurant and Bar

I enjoyed a nice complimentary breakfast buffet as well. With a wide variety of food options (and a swanky atmosphere in which to enjoy them), this was the perfect way to wrap up my visit before checking out.

HOTEL QUOTE Taipei was the perfect place to begin my Taiwan adventure, and I’m so very grateful for the opportunity to share this experience with my readers. Many thanks to Calvin, Irene, and the rest of the wonderful staff for making my stay so memorable.

There is much more to come from Taipei…so stay tuned!

The post HOTEL QUOTE Taipei – Modern, Elegant…& Surreal appeared first on I Dreamed Of This.

By Nathan Allen

It is a hotel, but the rooms also function as full service apartments. This makes them perfect for long-stay arrangements…they have even housed Hollywood stars such as Scarlett Johansson and Jackie Chan during their previous movie shoots in Taipei. It would have been surreal to look up and see them sharing the elevator with me!

I do have photos of the other rooms, but I will start with the unit I stayed in. I believe it’s called  the “Abundance” room type, and it has all the comforts of home. As was the case with my previous stay at Hotel Quote nearby, the mini bar here is 100% complimentary. Nice!

However, this time there is also a full kitchen, complete with dishes and silverware. There is even patio with a washer and dryer for clothes – though I believe there is an option for a butler’s assistance, if preferred.

I felt right at home with the interior design in my room…I love the almost minimalist decor, and the oak wood paneling  on the walls and flooring.

Below you can see one of my favorite touches – a rotating flat screen television built right into the wall! Guests on the couch in the living room can enjoy it, then flip it around to the bedroom to enjoy a comfortable movie in bed. Ingenious.

Speaking of the bed, GLORIA RESIDENCE features the same heavenly Simmons mattresses that I experienced at Hotel Quote the night before. Together with a luxurious down comforter / pillow set, enjoying a night’s rest here is an experience in and of itself.

Below is a glimpse into the “Oasis” room type. The decor is consistent throughout the hotel…not over the top, not underdone…for me it’s just right. This is the perfect place for business travelers or families during a stay in Taiwan.

Oasis was my favorite room type. It includes a guest room with separate aircon controls. The master bedroom has its own bathroom as well.

I enjoyed the layout and the bright, airy feeling of this unit…the “feng shui”, if you will.

Bathroom Details

The OUD toiletries and soaps were tastefully chosen, and as you would expect, the bathroom provides all the other amenities you might need. Also like Hotel Quote, there is an incredibly sophisticated electronic toilet. Yes, that means a bidet. It’s quite convenient.

An impressive “walk in” closet can be found in the “Royal A” room type.

Room Amenities – My Gloria Residence Review

As mentioned before, there is a complimentary mini bar available in all rooms, and plenty of other conveniences, such as an ironing board, hair dryer, slippers, bathrobe…etc. The large safety deposit box is something I always appreciate, and I commend them for allowing enough space for a 13 inch laptop (it’s just for peace of mind..I certainly didn’t have any doubts about safety here).

No complaints about the wifi in the room, either.

The Lounge On Floor B1

This comfortable and sophisticated lounge is available 24 hours a day, and offers snacks, seating, TVs and computer access if needed.

As you can see, it’s quite tasteful and elegant, but what really struck me about the lounge was what was said to me upon exiting it. The attendant simply acknowledged me with a smile and said warmly “see you tomorrow, sir“.

Such a simple gesture, but it means so much…it shows that the staff cares enough to know exactly who I am, and how long I will be there for. I mean, it’s a big place, and it was just my first day. I had never even seen this staff member before. I was impressed by that.

Anyhow, the complimentary breakfast buffet provides a nice assortment of western and Asian options for guests. I did not experience lunch or dinner here, but I did get to experience a mouth-watering lunch next door at their sister restaurant “CHIOU HWA”. You can check that out HERE.

(continued below, but I do hope you’ll consider following along with me…)

Heated Swimming Pool

On the ground floor, guests can enjoy the indoor swimming pool as well. It’s 18 meters long, and open during certain hours each day (there may be a change in hours depending on the season, so it’s best to inquire about this during your stay).

That wraps things up for GLORIA RESIDENCE, my next and final stop during my first tour of Taipei is swanky HOTEL PROVERBS…stay tuned for that! Special thanks to Calvin, Irene, and all the wonderful staff there at the hotel. It was nice to feel right at home.

Location & Booking

The hotel is conveniently located in Taipei’s Zhongshan district, just a short walk from the Shuanglian Station on the Danshui MRT Line.

The post GLORIA RESIDENCE – My Own Sleek Apartment in the Heart of Taipei appeared first on I Dreamed Of This.

This is a traditional Cantonese restaurant known for its dim sum and roast duck. In fact, the restaurant is famous for serving “Peking Duck” an impressive nine different ways.

My host Calvin Lai welcomed me to Taipei, and we began our “culinary tour”. First up was a sampling of some of Taiwan’s famous teas.

Starting from lightest to darkest, we sampled green tea, then oolong, then the heaviest roast – the black teas. My personal favorite was the first, known as “Biluochun Green Tea”. It is grown in Sanyi, Miaoli – Taiwan, and is quite accurately described as having an elegant taste.

This is when Chef Fong, a Hong Kong native, appeared on the scene. Along with a perfectly roasted duck, he began to put on quite a show for us.

With expert precision (and an incredibly sharp knife), he presented us with a plateful of sliced duck – crispy skin and all.

The chef was quite friendly, and kind to pose for a photo before returning to the kitchen.

After a brief explanation once more dishes were presented, we were ready to sample our sliced duck.

As mentioned earlier, the restaurant serves roast duck nine different ways…but we only had enough time (and appetite) to try three.  I have to admit I was a bit skeptical, because I swear I tried duck before, and did not care for it. This time, however, was completely different. I guess you could say it was love at first bite.

The first method used a thin wheat “pancake” (more like a crepe, I suppose) to wrap the duck meat, along with some spring onion and pickled ginger. A slight dip in the included sauce was the final touch before tasting. Wow. The meat was tender and succulent, expertly cooked and proportioned with the thin, crispy skin.

All methods have their appeal, but this was by far my favorite. Such a unique and delicious experience!

(continued below, but I do hope you’ll consider following along with me…)

The next method was Dried Tangerine Congee, or Chinese porridge. This recipe uses duck bones, along with traditional Chinese medicinal ingredients. The rich duck oil is well suited for for the taste and texture of the congee.

The third method uses a lettuce leaf to create a sauteed, minced duck wrap. You can see the minced duck meat on a small plate in the distance here.

Again, I preferred the “pancake” option, but everybody will have their own tastes and preferences, I suppose.

The next dish was quite special. Another one of the chef’s signatures, this is a goose liver soup made with precision sliced tofu.

Shaped like a flower, it’s quite obvious that a lot of work went into this detailed presentation. I didn’t even know it was possible to slice tofu this finely!

Our meal was topped off with some traditionally baked Cantonese apple pies. They were lightly sprinkled with cinnamon, and uniquely shaped liked small sandwiches. I don’t particularly like apple pie, but I must say – they were exquisite.

I took a look around the restaurant and snapped a photo of the dining hall before preparing to leave.

Overall, I was so impressed by this unique dining experience. It is clear that so much goes into the painstaking preparation of these dishes…and that passion and dedication shines through with each savory bite.

Big thanks to CHIOU HWA and chef Fong, as well as my host for this lunch, Mr. Calvin Lai. It is an honor to share this experience with all of you.

The post CHIOU HWA Restaurant, Taipei – My Newfound Love of Peking Duck appeared first on I Dreamed Of This.

By Nathan Allen

How did this happen? Fast forward about a year. I actually received an invitation to experience the Best Western Ivywall Hotel for myself. Let’s just say that my first impression was good – VERY good. Being practically right across the street from the airport in Puerto Princesa, the location could not be more perfect. It’s close enough to access right away, but not worry about constantly hearing planes taking off and landing.

To kick off my review, the Ivywall decor is clean, light, and modern. Rooms and corridors are tastefully accented with wood and abalone shell-style designs. The rooms are elegant and well thought out. The bright and cheery lobby with vaulted ceilings makes quite an impression, as do the sleek, brand new Mac computers they use at the front desk. Little things like this can make a huge difference.

Another thing I appreciated right away was the oversized safety deposit box they provide in the rooms. One of my pet peeves is hotels that provide these boxes, but use models that are too small to fit a 13-inch laptop inside. I say if you are going to provide them, they should at least be able to fit a standard-sized laptop, which is quite common these days.  Anyhow, well done Ivywall! I was able to fit everything of value safely in the box provided (not that I would worry too much about the wonderful staff there).

That leads me to my next point. The staff at this hotel could really be used as an example for others to follow. As a “professional traveler”, I have stayed in countless hotels and resorts over the years. Overall, this property ranks in the top 3. How lucky I was have my photography featured here! It is surreal to see my favorite photos from all over the Philippines highlighted in each room. It was like a trip down memory lane.

(continued below)

An Inspirational Chat With the General Manager

I was fortunate to receive a personal tour from the manager, Mr. Yeoh. Well, clearly he’s doing a great job with the place already, but what really struck me about him was something he said.

He told me that a large part of his focus is making sure that ALL guests are treated equally. Now, this may seem like a given for any property anywhere, but I know for a fact that in the Philippines, there are some places that prioritize foreigners over local guests. Sadly, I’ve heard this directly from my Filipino friends, and I love that Mr. Yeoh is taking a stand against it.

I’m sure that not only do his Filipino guests appreciate it, but also foreigners like myself. Nobody likes to see others treated unfairly. “They pay the same money as anybody else, why should they be treated any different?” I’ll never forget that. Bravo, sir.

I did not have a chance to experience lunch or dinner here, but I can tell you that the included breakfast buffet was excellent. I’m also a stickler for good coffee, and theirs was fantastic! Don’t worry, they’ll keep it coming for you if one cup is just not enough…

Also, if you’re looking to experience some food outside the hotel as well, don’t miss local delicacies at beautiful KaLui restaurant across the street! Just walking in is an experience in and of itself. Just stop by and you’ll see…

Contact Info, Rates & Reviews

Though it is not owned by them, the Ivywall Hotel is actually managed by Best Western, a company I’m quite familiar with in the U.S., but never really equated with luxury. Well perhaps things are different outside the U.S., because this place is truly top-notch. I suppose that’s why it’s called “Best Western Plus”. That “Plus” makes a huge difference!

I appreciate the opportunity to share photos of my adventures with the guests in the rooms, and also to be invited to experience the place for myself. Of course, I highly recommend it, but you don’t have to take my word for it….you can read the verified, unbiased reviews for yourself on Agoda. I hope you enjoyed the pictures, and feel free to ask if you have any questions!

The post Ivywall Hotel, Palawan – There’s a Reason it Feels Like Home… appeared first on I Dreamed Of This.

By Nathan Allen

Anyway, once I was in town, eventually the road came to a dead end at the sea. I must have looked a bit disoriented, because a local boatman named Jensen approached me and asked if I needed directions. Great timing and I was very thankful, because I was trying to get to Summer Homes Palawan, where I could park my bike and settle in for the night. I was so tired.

Chicken Soup & Reggae Music to the Rescue

I wasn’t able to see much of the resort’s character in the night, but the staff was quite helpful showing me to my room and getting me situated. The first order of business was getting some food, and for some reason I wandered right down to the small tiki bar by the beach. I guess it was the reggae music playing that got my attention, and the music just got better and better. The girl behind the counter at the bar told me I could order my food there. Perfect! I ordered my favorite Filipino chicken soup, called tinola. It was excellent.

I stuck around after dinner to keep enjoying the music and good vibes. That’s when I started to realize just how laid back Summer Homes really is. Not many people know how important music is in my life, and as the playlist continued, I really started to wonder who created it. They seemed like my long lost twin! It was as if they put my own iPod on random at the bar. It’s rare to find a place in the Philippines where I instantly feel so at home, music-wise.

After some investigating as the night went on, I learned that the playlist was created by the British owner, who was close to my age and owns the place along with his wife, who is Filipino. Too bad they weren’t around while I was there, because I got the feeling we would have gotten along great.

The next morning I woke up to some great weather, and I realized just how colorful the place is!

Summer Homes is a good value, not really dirt-cheap like a backpacking hostel, but not wildly pricey like most seaside resorts, either.

My room was simple, and very clean + well lit.

Essentials like soap, shampoo, and toilet paper are provided, and importantly, so is a mosquito net. To be honest, I never even saw a mosquito in the 5 days I was there, but it was nice to know I had a net if I needed it.

Many of the more affordable options in the Philippines don’t provide screens on the windows, and that is the biggest problem when it comes to mosquitoes. Summer Homes had it all, and with a friendly staff and great location right on the beach.

Someday I hope to create a checklist / guide for people considering starting businesses like this. If you want to offer relatively affordable options for backpackers and long term travelers, you could use Summer Homes as a stellar example!

 
I loved seeing how diverse the guests were in terms of age and nationality. Most seemed to be European, but there were definitely Australians, North Americans and locals as well. Nice mix, and a great energy.
 

Restaurant With Fresh Ingredients

I must say, I was quite impressed by the food they serve! The restaurant is perfect for those with western tastes. You can enjoy versions of Filipino food that aren’t quite as sweet, salty, or heavy, which many westerners prefer. You can find many familiar western options as well. They even bake their own bread, and that certainly made my eggs and toast breakfast memorable! Instant coffee is provided free of charge, too.

Summer Homes also gives the option of eating dinner directly on the beach if you’d like, and even has the occasional bonfire! Here I’m enjoying a meal of chicken, rice, and fresh vegetables by candlelight.

The resort offers plenty of tour options for adventure seekers, you can inquire at the front desk. The first tour I took was island hopping, which included snorkeling with sea turtles and then lunch on beautiful “Exotic Island” afterward. Before we headed home we stopped to check out more snorkeling, and some of the most spectacular corals I have seen anywhere in the Philippines.

A Note About Snorkeling / Swimming:

Make sure you bring “reef safe” sunblock if you go in the water. I think “oxybenzone” is the ingredient you want to avoid. Many of the brands that are safe for kids are actually better for the coral reefs as well. Anyhow, afterward, we stopped by a sandbar and spotted some starfish to wrap up an absolutely perfect day.

Another tour I took was a quiet paddle boat through the mangrove forest. If you’re observant, you can find many species of colorful birds, including beautiful kingfishers. Also present are highly poisonous mangrove snakes, which pose no threat because they sleep coiled up high in the branches during the day. Your boatman will point them out to you if he sees any. This was a beautiful and fascinating tour for me.

The last one is a short trek to Pamuayan Falls, which can be arranged through the resort, or accomplished on foot 3 or 4 kms from town if you’re feeling a bit adventurous. Just make sure you get proper directions, because there are a few unmarked turns along the way. I loved seeing the “trashcans” along the trail, which were actually just burlap sacks tied to the trees. It is a very rustic and untouched place, so it’s nice that the locals are taking these steps to keep it clean. You can take a shallow swim or bring some food to have a picnic in the large hut by the falls.

(Continued below)

As of now there is a “Full Moon Party” that takes place each month at the end of the beach. The night I went, there was a large diverse crowd with a live DJ and some fire dancers. There were even some people playing the Australian Aboriginal instrument known as a “didgeridoo”. Everybody was having a great time.

Contact Info, Reviews & Rates

Anyhow, I highly recommend staying at Summer Homes, especially if you want a pretty affordable place without sacrificing too much quality. I honestly doubt you’ll get more value anywhere else. They even shared some of their music playlist with me before I left, and that inspired me to share some of my own with them! So when you’re there, you might even hear some songs handpicked by me:)

I would like to thank them for the opportunity to share this experience with you, and for taking such good care of me while I was there. You’re welcome to read more reviews and see why people love it so much!
